He aid he thought there was no Biter Iman in the United States to succeed Mr. ENDICOTT AND MAYNARD, Another Conflict of Official Authority. A DISPUTE ABOUT MILEAGE ACCOUNTS—THE CONTROL LER'S FARTING SHOT AT THE SECRETARY. There have been numerous points of controversy between Second Controller Maynard and Secretary Endicott, The Secretary of War has not in all cases been willing to accept the decisions of the ‘Second Controller, and has tried on several occa- sions to have them reversed or overruled in some Way. There has been a conflict of authority, and Judge Maynard has held the key to the situation. Two or three months ago Mr. Endicott wrote a letter to the Second Controller in relation to. the ‘sccounts of Surgeon Billings, Lieut. Ray and Capt. Wheeler, for mileage while journeying abroad, which had been disallowed, reopened by request ot ‘the Secretary of War, and’again disallowed; and also to certain accounts of Capt. J. B. Rawles, Majors Smith and Tucker, and others., In the letter Mr. Endicott announced that he in- tended to submit the cases to the Court of Claims Under the provisions of section two of the act of March 3, 1883, which permits matters contravert- ed in the executive departments to be sent to the Court of Claims, Yesterday, just before retiring from the office of Second Controller, Judge Maynard wrote a sharp reply to the Secretary of War. He sald that the cases had all been svitted and the papers turned | over tothe Second Auditor; that there-examination dau resuited In su-caluiug Lue decision reached in the first instance, and that the matter would not be again reopened. As to the announcement that the Secretary of War intended to send the cases to the Court of Claims, he calls attention to the fact that the cases are éntirely under the jurisdiction of the Treasury Department and cannot be taken to the Court of Clims by the head of any other Department. Moreover, he reminds Mr. Endicott that the court could only give an opinion and not a decision in the cases, should ube Secretary of the ‘Treasury go there, In conclusion he says: “It the Secretary of War has any doubt with reference to the correct- ness of his own views upon any or all of the ab- stract questions of law propounded in his letter, the opinion of the Court of Claims thereon might be of value to him, but as this oftice has no doubt, and, so far asitcan be learned, this Department has hone with reference to the Correctness of the | adjustment of the accounts referred to, 1b 18 not Secu how a Teference of these cases by another de- partment fo the Court of Claims can affect the past or control the future action of the ‘Treasury -putment thereon,” —eoe —____ SOUTHERN RAILROADS, Still Harping on Long Haul and Short Haul. WHAT THR COMMERCE COMMISSION 18 DOING—AN AUDITOR AS WELL AS ASECRETAKY TOBE APFOINTED. The Interstate Commission met at 10 o'clock this morning. Petitions were received from Jno. B. Peck, superintendent of the South Carolina Rall- way Company, and J. Y. Sage, of the Georgia Pacific Ratlroad Company, urging a suspension of the long and short haul clause of the act, 80 far as these roads are concerned. ‘These petitions were really supplementary to the appeal of the Southern Railway and Steamship Company, made last week, for suspension of the long and short haul clause, and corroborated the facts set forth In that appeal, as to the conditions pre- Vailing in the territory south of-the Potomac and Ohio, and east of the Mississippi rivers, ‘There were no hearings by the board during the forenoon. ‘The Commissioners busied themselves in attending to their mail and in considering re- quests for future hearings. In connection with the permanent organization of the board, it has been decided to appoint an auditor, as well asa secretary. This auditor will Thaps be the disburaing clerk as well, and it Will be his duty vo attend to the payment of bilis and keep a record of expenses. ‘The salary of the position wAl probably be fixed at $2,000 per year. {t seems to be the idea of the Commission that the secretary should not be troubled with any of the Snanclal matters of the board. NO DISTRICT MEN NEED APPLY. New Apportionment of Government Positions Under the Civil Service Rules, The civil service commission has completed a new apportioninent of government positions un- der the civil service law among the states and territories. The original apportionment was made upon the basis of one thousand appoint- ments, These were apportioned at the rate of one office for every 50,000 population among the states, territorfes and the District of Columbia, ‘The new apportionment was made upon the basis of twenty-five hundred appointments, and all the states and territories come in for a share of the reed apportionment; but the District of Co- fa 1s excluded, as it got forty-six appoint- ments under the first apportionment, whereas its quota was only four, Notwithstanding the appointments granted to the District In excess of its quota, there 1s occa sionally a resident of the District placed in office under the civil-service rules. This grows outor the fact that some of the special registers, made a year or two ago, contain the names of persons eligible to appointment from the District. When Suci a register 1s exhausted, with the exception of the District names upon it, then it becomes the fortune of the District person so placed to be cer- Ufled for appointment, “But as long as there are any eligibles from the States or Territories on the register they are certified first a8 entitled to pre- cedence over District eligibles. soe The Pacific Railroad Investigation. THE PRESENT NOT IN A HURRY TO MAKE THE aP- MENTS. Inconnection with the appointment of the Pa- cific Kallroad Commission it 1s said that the Pres!- dent will not be ina hurry to make it up, as, after consultation with men posted as to the character of the work to be done, he has decided that it would not be practicable to complete the investi- gation in Ume to submit a report to the next Con- gress. It 1s understood now that the President will take his time to make up the commission, aud that Congress, at the next session, will bé asked to extend the time in which it may present its report.

The’ vessel had been engaged in shell practice off the Island of Ikeshima, 25 miles from and the off cer in chargé reported that all the shells had ex. ploded. Shortly after, however, while a group of Japanese were examining a shell which haa been fired from the Omaha, jt exploded, Killing fourand wounding seven, On learning these facts Kear Aduiral ‘Chandler placed Capt. Selfridge under ‘Suspension, and ordered him to leave by the first steamer to report to the Secretary of the Navy. Nothing is known at the Navy Department about Capt. Selfridge's suspension, ‘The mail from the Asiatic station is expected tn a few days and will probably contain a report from Admi Chandler about the matter. ‘There 1s no reason for disbelleving the report, however. but it is thought hardly probable that he would be sent home on account of the accident as reported, a3 he would not be held responsible for the failure of shell toexplode at the proper time. ‘The Ord- nance departinent, or the gunner, would be more likely to be ble. “‘The,réport of the ad- miral will doubtless give a full explanation of the whole matter ——— Pacific Railway Bonds, AN OPINION OF THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL ON THE IN- ‘VESTMI , QUESTION.

SOWERS, His Comments on sociation, 4 QUESTION RAISED AS TO WHETHER THE CODE OF ETHICS HAS BEEN VIOLATED—ANONYMOUS LETTERS SENT TO THE CENSORS—AN INQUIRY TO BE MADE ‘BY THE STANDING COMMITTEE. At the meeting of the Medical Association last evening Dr. T. C. Smith, chairman of the board of censors, read a number of anonymous communica- tions that had been sent to him criticising Dr. Z. T. Sowers, for having, in an alleged published Interview, discussed the health of the President. Dr. Smith said, that he merely submitted this matter to the association, but not as a charge against Dr. Sowers, for no formal charge id been made against him. He thought they might be referred to the standing committee for an investigation as to whether the code of ethics of the association had been violated. He said that the discussion by a doctor of a case that wasin the hands of a member of the pro- fession might be considered as unprofessional, and in. this view he recommended that the matter be Teferred to the standing committee. A STATEMENT IN DR. SOWERS' BEHALP. It was suggested that the publication might Possibly misrepresent Dr. Sowera, and Dr. Shute sald that the remarks made by Dr. Sowers in re- gurd to the cage of the President were not intended y that gentleman for publication. He bad ex- pressed his opinion about the President in the course of conversation with some gentiemen one evening at aclub. The talk turned on the health of public men, and Dr. Sowers then said that the manner of lifé pursued by the President was likely to result in injury to himself. Among the group Of talkers was one of the proprietors of one of the city papers, and about six weeks after the conver. sation Unis gentleman came to Dr. Sowers and said that be was going to publish what he (Dr. Sowers) had said in regard to the President. Dr. Sowers objected to this, and he was told that 1t was too important a matter to be kept from the public. Dr. Sowers then asked him not to mention bis name in connection with the matter, and Dr. Sowers understood that his name would not ap- THE QUESTION REFERED TO A COMMITTEE. Dr. Reyburn and Dr. Kleinschmidt said that the discussion was irregular, and unless formal charges were made the matter ought to be dropped. Dr. Hamilton sald that Dr. Sowers ‘ought to have an opportunity to explain the mat- ter, On motion of ‘Dr. Garnett the subject was laid on the table, but ‘subsequently a resolution Nas offered by Dr. Hamilton and adopted, a8 fol- “That the standing committee be directed to re- Port at the next meeting of the assoctation Whether any member of thls association has vio Jated the code of etiuies in regard to. the publica tion of reports concerning the patient of any other member Of this association.” DR. SOWERS DECLINES TO TALK. A Stag reporter saw Dr. Sowers this morning. He said he had not received any dfficial notice of charges against him. He declined to be inter- Mewed, saying that, should he talk about, the matter’to the press, he would be doing what 1t ts alleged he Was accused of in the Medical Associa- Uon. | He said it was a question to be settled in- side the profession, and it was not proper for hin to make answer in’the newspapers. THE NATIONAL DRILL. The Breeze Over the Participation of Colored Companies, ‘THE SENTIMENT IN THE SOUTH DIVIDED—SECRETARY ‘DE LEON NOT DISCOURAGED—NEW ENTRIES, ETC. —— « Secretary De Leon, of the National Drill, has re- ceived a telegram from the Capital Light Guards, of Jackson, Miss., asking for Information in regard othe participation of colored companies in the drill, He telegraphed an answer day before yes- terday and has received no further communica- ton.
